Restaurants near Dunn Center for The Performing Arts

Food was very good. A nice change from traditional American restaurants. Spices used were very tasty. Service was outstanding and the design of the restaurant is beautiful.

It was just a perfect evening! I was especially impressed with the service and the food!

The Colossal shrimp appetizer was wonderful. The filet was done to perfection and the mashed Yukon potatoes was great as was asparagus. The bread was cut up in large pieces and served with tasty olive oil and a balsamic syrup. It was perfect. Dessert, an espresso crème brûlée was divine. Even the drinks were tasty! One of the owners came by to speak to us which is always nice. The waitress, Heaven, was fantastic. She paid us just the right amount of attentiveness without hovering, The only ‘disappointment’ I’d say was that the head chef meandered throughout the restaurant and spoke with guests but looked at our table(only 2 of us) and yet never approached our table as he had done with basically every other table. Thought that was kind of odd. But nevertheless I can’t wait to go back!!! Thrilled that Rocky Mount has this lovely restaurant with great food, great service and it’s open Mon- Sat. (for dinner only). EB

My daughter and I went to dinner early in the afternoon. We were greeted by the hostess and seated promptly (we had reservations). Chaz immediately came to our table introduced himself, told us about the specials got our drink orders. He also made wonderful suggestions on the menu. The appetizer was great along with both of our entrées. My daughter got the halibut piccata, and I got the fillet with goat cheese, ravioli, both were exceptional along with the service!

Today was my wife’s birthday and On the Square was the perfect place to celebrate with our friends. The food was excellent and Paige, our server, was excellent. She gave us excellent suggestions and was on point! Thanks for a wonderful evening.
